  1. Economics of the psychopath. People,e didn't fight or work for their country just because of wages anymore than smart people pick being an NHS doctor for the money. This is a horribly crude way of understanding economics and does not actually reflect how people work. Except for psychopaths and and far right economists who should get out more.

  3. I don't know anyone survived WW1, occupation, civil war, famine, invasion and all this on top of taking over the archaic Tsarist empire. I'm not saying vote Marxist-Leninist but I'm still impressed with what the Bolshevik empire achieved.

  4.  @arronjameshook  The Britisn Empire had amazing logistics across many continents, climates and peoples. Look at all the places the British India forces went.

  5.  @billbolton  i think most folk like to be useful to their society. The ussr found it fairly easy to get people to work, invent etc, that want the problem. The problem was that when something didn't work they just threw more resources at it. I don't fancy it but the ussr was better than tsarism, it was probably the second best system we have come up with. Baby and bath water.
